We study the "set parameterized matching" problem, a generalization of the classical parameterized matching problem introduced by Baker. In set parameterized matching, both the pattern and text are sequences where each position contains a…
We consider two closely related problems of text indexing in a sub-linear working space. The first problem is the Sparse Suffix Tree (SST) construction of a set of suffixes $B$ using only $O(|B|)$ words of space. The second problem is the…
An indexed sequence of strings is a data structure for storing a string sequence that supports random access, searching, range counting and analytics operations, both for exact matches and prefix search. String sequences lie at the core of…
Strings form a fundamental data type in computer systems. String searching has been extensively studied since the inception of computer science. Increasingly many applications have to deal with imprecise strings or strings with fuzzy…
We consider the $Parameterized$ $Pattern$ $Matching$ problem, where a pattern $P$ matches some location in a text $\mathsf{T}$ iff there is a one-to-one correspondence between the alphabet symbols of the pattern to those of the text. More…
The Suffix Array is a classic text index enabling on-line pattern matching queries via simple binary search. The main drawback of the Suffix Array is that it takes linear space in the text's length, even if the text itself is extremely…
The fundamental question considered in algorithms on strings is that of indexing, that is, preprocessing a given string for specific queries. By now we have a number of efficient solutions for this problem when the queries ask for an exact…
Index is an important component in database systems. Learned indexes have been shown to outperform traditional tree-based index structures for fixed-sized integer or floating point keys. However, the application of the learned solution to…
The binary string matching problem consists in finding all the occurrences of a pattern in a text where both strings are built on a binary alphabet. This is an interesting problem in computer science, since binary data are omnipresent in…
We consider how to index strings, trees and graphs for jumbled pattern matching when we are asked to return a match if one exists. For example, we show how, given a tree containing two colours, we can build a quadratic-space index with…
We study the design of efficient algorithms for combinatorial pattern matching. More concretely, we study algorithms for tree matching, string matching, and string matching in compressed texts.
The problem of generalized function matching can be defined as follows: given a pattern $p=p_1 \cdots p_m$ and a text $t=t_1 \cdots t_n$, find a mapping $f:\Sigma_p\rightarrow\Sigma_t^{*}$ and all text locations $i$ such that $f(p_1) f(p_2)…
The palindrome pattern matching (pal-matching) is a kind of generalized pattern matching, in which two strings $x$ and $y$ of same length are considered to match (pal-match) if they have the same palindromic structures, i.e., for any…
The compressed indexing problem is to preprocess a string $S$ of length $n$ into a compressed representation that supports pattern matching queries. That is, given a string $P$ of length $m$ report all occurrences of $P$ in $S$. We present…
Suffix trees are key and efficient data structure for solving string problems. A suffix tree is a compressed trie containing all the suffixes of a given text of length $n$ with a linear construction cost. In this work, we introduce an…
In this paper we describe a data structure that supports pattern matching queries on a dynamically arriving text over an alphabet ofconstant size. Each new symbol can be prepended to $T$ in O(1) worst-case time. At any moment, we can report…
Given a pattern x of length m and a text y of length n, both over an ordered alphabet, the order-preserving pattern matching problem consists in finding all substrings of the text with the same relative order as the pattern. It is an…
Suffix trees are an important data structure at the core of optimal solutions to many fundamental string problems, such as exact pattern matching, longest common substring, matching statistics, and longest repeated substring. Recent lines…
Parameterized algorithms are a way to solve hard problems more efficiently, given that a specific parameter of the input is small. In this paper, we apply this idea to the field of answer set programming (ASP). To this end, we propose two…
This article discusses a particular case of the data clustering problem, where it is necessary to find groups of adjacent text segments of the appropriate length that match a fuzzy pattern represented as a sequence of fuzzy properties. To…
